Google Calendar notifications will no longer support SMS

Some changes are coming to Google Calendar that will impact how your meeting notifications are delivered. On January 7, 2019, Google will be disabling SMS event notifications for the Calendar application.

What does this mean for you? If you’ve been receiving SMS (text) notifications when meetings or events are about to begin, those will no longer come to your device. However, notifications generated by apps (i.e., iOS Calendar, Google Calendar App) will continue to work. Email notifications will also be unaffected by this change and will continue to work.
